Republican legislator to introduce right-to-work bill next session

MADISON - A Republican lawmaker has promised to introduce right-to-work legislation during the upcoming session.

Rep. Chris Kapenga of Delafield said Tuesday he plans to introduce a bill but isn't sure when. He says he needs to make the case that the legislation would help the state's economy to the GOP caucus.

Assembly Speaker Robin Vos said in July he didn't intend to pursue the issue in 2015 but on Monday issued a statement saying he looked forward to discussing the benefits of becoming a right-to-work state. His spokeswoman had no immediate comment Tuesday.
